Reader question: How long does it take to legalize documents?
Dear readers,
After the translation no impediment to marriage, the legalization by the Thai Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Does anyone have an idea how many days this will take?
Thanks in advance.
Groet
Ronald (BE)
Is indicated at the TH Buza, so from memory 1-3 days.
In fact, you could have arranged, translated and legalized everything there on the spot.
Hello ronald,
You write a bit unclear, so I don't know exactly what you want to know or how far you are.
I can let you know the following: if you need legalization of your marriage papers, the translation must meet certain requirements set by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Bangkok.
When I got married, I had my papers translated here in Hua Hin. However, the lady in the translation office warned me: it could be that she had misspelled certain terms and that this translation was not accepted by the ministry.
And she was right. It was only a few words, but the document had to be translated again.
You can save a lot of money and time by doing the following:
Go to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs with your documents in the morning. On the second floor, where you have to report, look out for young people walking around with stacks of papers. When I was there it was about four of them who were busy all day. These work for translation agencies and make it very easy for you.
They know exactly what is required by the ministry and also guarantee that it will be done right. You can hand over your entire paper stand to them. The prices I don't remember off the top of my head, but were very reasonable. You can then go home and they will take care of the rest for everything: translation, legalization and they will send your documents to your home, unless you agree otherwise.
As a rule, the whole thing takes one day.
Success!
When you're standing in the long, long, long line in the morning, just curse and wave your papers! A Thai will come up to you and ask if you have any problems…. Then you just have to answer that your papers URGENTLY need to be legalized. Want to bet that your papers will be in order the same day, provided of course ...? The same person can also help you with your marriage, provided ... of course!
I've been through it all and that legalization + the marriage was arranged in 1 day!
So just putting on a big mouth has an effect. And everyone complaining about normal manners in public space.
In our case everything was done in one day. We could even wait for translation.
If you hand in the documents before 10 am, you can collect them from 14 pm.
You must be prepared to pay the speed fee, which is 400 Baht per page instead of 200 Baht.
Downstairs there is a cafeteria where you can eat and drink something,
Translation of legalized documents in the Dutch language can be done on site, takes about 45 minutes. There are dozens of runners from translation offices around.
you can also have them translated by Consular, costs 200 Baht per page, but with a visit for a day, and then have them legalized again.
They can also be returned by registered mail for a small fee
Opposite the Dutch embassy in Bangkok is a desk, "transam" or something, they can help you with everything. You hand in your stuff, they take care of the rest flawlessly. Urgent is (obviously) more expensive, I think in 1 day, but for all papers together maybe 25 euros extra…
If you compare it with the amounts that the embassy charges for a signature, almost for nothing!
In front of the Foreign Affairs building (my wife called it consum) there were several motorbike couriers who worked for translation agencies. Within about 1 hour they were back with the translation (give a copy and not the original). then inside and after a few hours we were able to take the stamped cases with us.
